Description

Roco 7520142 H0 Electric locomotive E 16 09, DRG, Ep. I, AC sound: The historic electric locomotive of the Deutsche Reichsbahn-Gesellschaft

The Roco 7520142 H0 electric locomotive E 16 09 of the Deutsche Reichsbahn-Gesellschaft (DRG) is a masterful replica of the legendary E 16 09, which was used in express train service in Bavaria and Austria at the beginning of the 1920s. With a highly detailed design, a faithful reproduction of the Buchli drive and numerous digital functions, this model is a real highlight for any model railway layout of Era II.

The prototype: DRG electric locomotive E 16 09

At the beginning of the 1920s, the Deutsche Reichsbahn-Gesellschaft was faced with the challenge of procuring powerful locomotives for the express train service on the planned Bavarian network around Munich. Due to the success of the Swiss Ae 3/6 I series locomotives with the innovative Buchli type single-axle drive, it was decided to develop a much heavier design in 1922, which could travel at 120 km/h and achieve an impressive hourly output of 2,340 kW. These locomotives were mainly used for the express trains between Munich and Austria.

Finely detailed model: The highlight on every model railroad

The Roco 7520142 H0 electric locomotive E 16 09 impresses with its precise and detailed design. Numerous separately applied parts and the original reproduction of the Buchli drive make the model a true masterpiece of the art of model making. The engine room and driver's cab are printed and offer a high level of detail that sets the model apart from others. The locomotive is equipped with a variety of functions in digital operation, including individually switchable headlights or marker lights, cab lighting and engine room lighting to show off the model to its best advantage in operation.

Technical features and lighting

The Roco 7520142 H0 electric locomotive E 16 09 is designed for operation with 3L alternating current (AC) and ensures a stable and consistent power supply. The locomotive is equipped with the latest LED lighting, which enables a realistic change of light between red and white. With a length over buffers (LüP) of 187 mm and a minimum radius of 360 mm, the model is suitable for many H0 layouts. The NEM coupling system with close coupling kinematics ensures a safe and precise connection with other vehicles and enables smooth operation on more complex track layouts.

Why this model is a must for your collection

The Roco 7520142 H0 electric locomotive E 16 09 is an absolute highlight for anyone interested in the history of the Deutsche Reichsbahn and the development of electric locomotives. With its excellent attention to detail, the digital functions and the faithful reproduction of the Buchli drive, this model not only offers historical authenticity, but also the possibility of using it in modern model railroad worlds. It is ideal for recreating express train traffic in Era II and fits in perfectly with other DRG vehicles and similar Era II models.

Care and maintenance

The model requires only minimal maintenance. The LEDs are maintenance-free, but the wheels and couplings should be cleaned regularly to ensure optimum operation. Dust can be carefully removed with a soft brush, while the couplings and mechanical parts should be checked regularly. This care ensures that the model remains in perfect condition and retains its full functionality for many years to come.

Conclusion: A highlight of model railroad era II

The Roco 7520142 H0 electric locomotive E 16 09 is an exceptional replica of the DRG's historic E 16 09, which impresses with its fine attention to detail and advanced digital functions. It is the perfect addition to any model railroad layout that wants to authentically recreate Era II and offers model railroaders the opportunity to experience the express train service of the 1920s at the highest level. This locomotive is a true collector's item and a must-have for any high-quality model railroad!
